    Where are the numbers? – Tracy Chou – Medium https://medium.com/@triketora/where-are-the-numbers-cb99... Where are the numbers? Tracy Chou Follow Oct 11, 2013 · 4 min read The %rst Grace Hopper conference was held in 1994, bringing together 500 technical women. The second was in 1997. It’s since become an annual tradition, with attendance rising steeply in recent years: 2.9k in 2011, 3.6k in 2012, 4.6k in 2013. This is encouraging! Yay girl geeks! Denitely does compute! But wait — In raw numbers, are there actually more technical women in industry now than before? Is the percentage of women in engineering going up? What’s working? Is anything? Does anybody know? ... We do know there’s a leaky pipeline of women in engineering (well documented in the book Unlocking the Clubhouse). Not enough girls are taking math and science classes in elementary school. Even fewer are enrolled in computer science classes in high school. By college, women constitute less than 12% of graduating CS majors. What’s not clear is what happens when the graduates go o to industry. Do they stay in technical roles? Do they shift into non-technical roles in tech? Do they leave tech altogether? A 2011-2013 CNN investigation into diversity at top U.S. tech companies turned up nothing but an industry-wide unwillingness to release any workforce diversity data.

  • Inclusion: Diversity, the New Workplace & the Will to Change
    PRAISE FOR JENNIFER BROWN & INCLUSION “Inclusion, in the true sense of the word, is no longer a soft issue. It is unequivocally a business imperative. In order for organizations to thrive and be profitable, we must cast the widest net to bring in the best talent from every source around the globe. This means diversity of thought, style, approach, and experience, which if done right and the company culture supports it, allows for better engagement, productivity, innovation, and a direct and proven impact on the bottom line. Given the changing times and the uncertainty we face in the world today around safety, trust in the system, and globalization of the economy, we need to create safe places for everyone to be themselves and bring their authentic selves to work and home. No one should feel unsafe or unprotected or fearful of not being accepted due to any difference they may have. They should feel unique, special, and valued. It is our job as change agents to make this a reality. Jennifer Brown’s book is a real testament to driving change in this new era. It’s a call to action, with a useful and practical set of tools that can be implemented by those who truly care and want to make things happen. Having known Jennifer and her work for some time, I’m a real believer in her passion, talent, and the innovation she brings to the discipline of diversity and inclusion. She truly gets it and is a real role model for many in this field and beyond.” —Patsy Doerr, global head of corporate responsibility and inclusion, Thomson Reuters “Given the current state of events tearing at the diverse fabric of what has made America great, Jennifer Brown and her new book, Inclusion: Diversity, the New Workplace & the Will to Change, is a must for those who want to absorb Jennifer’s thoughts, ideas, concepts, and personal courage.

  • Reconceptualizing Sexual Harassment, Again Vicki Schultz Abstract
    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL FORUM J UNE 18, 2018 Reconceptualizing Sexual Harassment, Again Vicki Schultz abstract. Sexual harassment has always been more about sexism than it is about sex. Nearly twenty years ago, Vicki Schultz pioneered a new understanding of sexual harassment that recognized and theorized this empirical reality. The framework she developed in two articles published in the Yale Law Journal—Reconceptualizing Sexual Harassment and The Sanitized Work- place—still holds important lessons for today. The emergence of the #MeToo movement has brought about a welcome, renewed focus on sexual harassment and motivated long-overdue terminations of accused harassers across industries. Yet pervasive narratives still narrowly em- phasize sexualized forms of harassment and assault—at the expense of broader understandings of harassment and its causes. This Essay revisits and expands on Schultz’s previous work in the contemporary context, drawing on the technology and film industries as case studies and show- ing that sex segregation and unchecked, subjective authority are central institutional causes of sex-based harassment. To end harassment will thus require more than firing individual har- assers. It will require structural reform to eliminate arbitrary authority and sex segregation at work. Bold solutions are needed if we are to ensure sexual harassment isn’t still prevalent twenty years from now. 22 reconceptualizing sexual harassment, again essay contents introduction 24 i. theory 27 A.
